On the face of it, this version of 'South Pacific' is oddly cast, with the Queen of Country, Reba McEntire as Nellie, and Alec Baldwin as Luther - but it works!
Brian Stokes Mitchell is perhaps the best Emile I've seen on stage or screen, and that's with some tough competition. McEntire is excellent despite the twang which comes through in all her songs; while Jason Daniely is a charming Cable. Lillias White is a fine (and rather younger than usual) Bloody Mary, while Alec Baldwin is a really fun Luther, even being game to wear the coconuts and grass skirts in the Honey Bun number.
Good orchestrations, nice support, and a great set of supporting singers make this concert in the beautiful setting of Carnegie Hall well worth stopping channel changes for.
